The first step in the iSustian process is an in-person review of your business’ facilities. Drawing upon decades of experience in the recycling industry, our team of experts will evaluate your buildings and equipment to determine your current waste-handling capabilities and what might be needed to enhance them.
Next, our team focuses their attention on your current waste disposal processes. We review and document every step of the process: from who is responsible, to how it moves and where it goes.
Recycling has evolved, so your waste stream can too. After reviewing your current facilities and processes, iSustain takes a look at the types of waste your business is generating and the options that are available for recycling. There is a strong possibility that much of it can be recycled.
These days, “going green” doesn’t mean spending a lot of money and seeing no return. In fact, a zero-waste approach can actually save you money. Following our assessment of your operation, iSustain will review your total waste stream costs, including labor, fees, and the incremental costs associated with generating more waste – and identify key areas where costs can be reserved. We will present our findings in a straightforward report you can evaluate.
At iSustain, our goal is to develop creative recycling solutions that adapt to an ever-changing world. Following our audit of your business’ waste management practices, we will develop a custom, data-driven proposal aimed at reducing the amount you spend on waste removal, diverting as much waste as possible from landfills, and improving your sustainability objectives.
We provide everything you need: from Gaylord boxes and baling wire to the balers themselves. We even harness the power of AI to track and predict the optimal time to collect your waste, saving you money.

Tried and true. Mechanical recycling is the “traditional” method of recycling: plastics are ground, cleaned, separated, dried, and compounded to produce new material.
Through advances in technology, more plastics than ever are able to be recycled. Utilizing advanced chemical recycling methods, we are able to reduce many plastic products back to their original molecular form. This method produces near-virgin quality plastics resins, thus greatly expanding its life cycle.
In our current economy, we take materials from the Earth, make products from them, and eventually throw them away as waste – the process is linear. In a circular economy, by contrast, we stop waste from being produced in the first place.
Eliminate waste and pollution
Circulate products and materials (at their highest value)
Regenerate nature
It is underpinned by a transition to renewable energy and materials. A circular economy decouples economic activity from the consumption of finite resources on our earth.
